Dear Mittens, what a beautiful tabby girl you are. You are perfectly striped and so soft looking, and your face is beyond adorable.
Your pictures are gorgeous, you are perfect a model.
I'm sorry that your sister Buttons couldn't stay with you. I hope her new family will be as wonderful as yours.
You are a busy kitty. First of all, you love to eat, and then, you love to eat!
To stay in shape, you climb trees and chase lizards, and you are a soccer kitty as well.
After all this activity, you snuggle with your dad, and you have movie nights with your parents.
Happy Birthday, Mittens, you are one fabulous kitty, and I wish you and your family a great day full of celebration, and many more happy and healthy years together.

Dearest Mittens, you are an absolutely stunning beauty! What a gorgeous Tabby lady you are! You're so pretty in all those great photos, and thank you for sharing them with us. So nice to see you as a kitten in some and you with your sister Buttons in that one. I'm sorry she couldn't stay with you, and I hope she got as nice and PURRRFECT a home as you have! I wish I could reach through the screen and around the world and Down Under to Sydney and pet you, and pet Buttons wherever she is, too. I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved Purrrents will pet you for me, and I hope Buttons's Purrrents see this and will pet her too !

Today is your birthday, and your sister's too. Or it is probably already tomorrow in Sydney by now, but I'm wishing you both a happy, happy birthday!

And what a delightful Purrrsonality you have! You have a lot to do each day, don't you.. checking out and then eating all the different food you need to keep up with, working out playing soccer and climbing trees, helping mummy with her work, giving Paw 5s, roaming in the backyard hunting lizards, watching movies with your dear Purrrents on Friday and Saturday nights.. busy, busy, busy! You and they all love each other very much, don't you.. Daddy always says that you are their first daughter! What a wonderful love-filled home you share!

Congratulations, darling Mittens, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear Purrrents and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats. We wish the same to Buttons and her dear Purrrsons, too!

I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.

What a lovely tabby and white kitty you are! Your fur looks so soft to pet, and I like your white mittens!

You are a busy girl- helping mum with her work; playing soccer or spending time in the yard, checking on all that's happening there! (Please be careful on your outdoor wanderings, okay?) You give paw fives, and you do some hunting! You have some favorite foods that your dad prepares for you Then it is time to enjoy your igloo, resting on your special blanket, or a movie with Mittens!

Happy, happy Cat of the Day to dear Mittens!

I've been Boo'd... right off the stage!

Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

"That's the power of kittens (and puppies too, of course): They can reduce us to quivering masses of Jell-O in about two seconds flat and make us like it. Good thing they don't have opposable thumbs or they'd surely have taken over the world by now." -- Paul Lukas
